Popülist politik söylemlerden iktisadi savlara, felsefi tartismalardan ideolojik metinlere varincaya kadar her alana ve gündelik yasantimiza girmis olan deger kavrami muglak birakilmis, verili sayilmis ve yeteri kadar sorgulanmamistir. Ya asiri genellige ya da asiri görecelige terk edilen bu kavramin köklerine inilmesi ve farkli toplumlar nezdinde tasidigi anlamlarin irdelenmesi, alternatif bir toplum ve siyaset tahayyülü acisindan kilit öneme...

This is an intellectual feast' Nassim Nicholas Taleb For generations, our remote ancestors have been cast as primitive and childlike - either free and equal, or thuggish and warlike.

For generations, our remote ancestors have been cast as primitive and childlike - either free and equal innocents, or thuggish and warlike. Civilization, we are told, could be achieved only by sacrificing those original freedoms or, alternatively, by taming our baser instincts. David Graeber and David Wengrow show how such theories first emerged in the eighteenth century as a conservative reaction to powerful critiques of European society pose...

Before there was money, there was debt Every economics textbook says the same thing: Money was invented to replace onerous and complicated barter systems-to relieve ancient people from having to haul their goods to market. The problem with this version of history? There's not a shred of evidence to support it.Here anthropologist David Graeber presents a stunning reversal of conventional wisdom. He shows that for more than 5, 000 years, since t...

A trailblazing account of human history, challenging our most fundamental assumptions about social evolution-from the development of agriculture and cities to the emergence of "the state, " political violence, and social inequality-and revealing new possibilities for human emancipation.For generations, our remote ancestors have been cast as primitive and childlike-either free and equal innocents, or thuggish and warlike. Civilization, we are t...

David Graeber is not only one of the most important living thinkers, but also one of the most influential. However, he is one of the very few "engaged" intellectuals who has a proven track record of effective militancy on a world scale. It is possible that no one has had such an "impact" on the international left as he has. Graeber is perhaps the living intellectual who has offered up the most credible paths for exiting capitalism- as much th...

David Graebers Lektüren historischer Entwicklungen verliefen schon immer gegen den Strich sowohl des liberalen wie des linken Mainstreams. Auf Grundlage seiner theoretischen wie praktischen Erfahrungen als Ethnologe und Anthropologe diskutiert er hier mit dem tunesisch-französischen Philosophen Mehdi Belhaj Kacem und der Anthropologin Assia Turquier-Zauberman die Genealogie anarchistischen Denkens und die möglichen Perspektiven für eine Politi...

Ein Bullshit-Job ist eine Beschäftigungsform, die so völlig sinnlos, unnötig oder schädlich ist, dass selbst der Arbeitnehmer ihre Existenz nicht rechtfertigen kann. Es geht also gerade nicht um Jobs, die niemand machen will, sondern um solche, die eigentlich niemand braucht. Im Zuge des technischen Fortschritts sind zahlreiche Arbeitsplätze durch Maschinen ersetzt worden. Trotzdem ist die durchschnittliche Arbeitszeit nicht etwa gesunken, so...

Si può definire democratico un sistema politico che tutela i più ricchi e abbandona il 99% della popolazione? Gli strumenti di questa democrazia, la democrazia liberale, non sono in grado di affrontare e risolvere la crisi in atto. È necessario un cambiamento sociale per realizzare una democrazia reale e riportare al centro del dibattito la disuguaglianza economica. David Graeber osserva come non siano più l'industria e il commercio a determin...

From bestselling writer David Graeber—"a master of opening up thought and stimulating debate" (Slate)—a powerful argument against the rise of meaningless, unfulfilling jobs…and their consequences.Does your job make a meaningful contribution to the world? In the spring of 2013, David Graeber asked this question in a playful, provocative essay titled "On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs." It went viral. After one million online views in seventeen...

Siate onesti: se il vostro lavoro non esistesse, quanti ne sentirebbero la mancanza? Qual è il contributo significativo che offre al mondo? Nella primavera del 2013, David Graeber ha posto questi semplici interrogativi in un articolo provocatorio pubblicato online, e il successo è stato immediato: milioni di visualizzazioni, traduzioni in quasi venti lingue, condivisioni virali in tutto il mondo, campagne spontanee di guerrillia marketing da p...

In tegenstelling tot wat de wetenschap altijd heeft gedacht, betoogt David Graeber dat 'schuld' al bestond, ver voordat geld en munten werden uitgevonden en dat de mens al 5000 jaar gebruikmaakt van uitgebreide kredietsystemen. Sterker nog: Schuld en de kwijtschelding daarvan hebben ons morele besef gevormd -het woord 'schuld' werd al vanaf het begin in zakelijke én in religieuze zin gebruikt. Slavernij, geweld, oorlogen en opstanden: ze hange...
